In one of the funniest sketches in recent "Saturday Night Live" history, the show riffs on a variety of recent political headlines in one swoop this weekend, with Jim Jordan's speaker campaign flop at the center.
At the start of the sketch, cast member Mikey Day portrays a frazzled Jordan sitting at his desk and talking to his wife on the phone, which he breaks in frustration after informing her of yet another loss in the votes for the position he so desperately hoped to land, saying all he wants to do is get Congress back to work so he can shut it down again.
